Undiagnosing Emotional Distress: Trauma, social isolation, spiritual crisis, poor self-care, or job fit are temporary, not genetic. But psychiatry is forever.
For #5 on your list, @PCAColorado1 has the best ever project, Una Voz, to mix advocacy, #PeerSpecialists#HealthFuturism2019#CHC19 and Peer Coaching. https://t.co/NzLQFSW3QJ
#alternatives2019 the biggest barrier to progress is #ProviderPrivelege, make some noise about the problems with the disease model and only providers having access to funds.
#19CHSUnplugged If you think medications have a stigma, try experiencing the stigma after you start talking about medical harm. All medical care has both harm and benefit. People who only talk about benefit are like gamblers who only talk about wins.
The greatest barrier to accessing care is the disease model itself. You will have to de-medicalize help-seeking in order to reduce stigma. People need solutions to trauma, not drugs and labels. #19CHSUnplugged

#19CHSUnplugged Hello, who decided that "access to care," was the primary objective? Because social determinants science says that "access to care" is only 20% of health outcomes. Help me out here. @Hassanah2017@carolynanderson
Time to UnDiagnose Emotional Distress, sometime's it's NOT Genetic, Sometimes it's Trauma, Brain Injury, Lack Of Connection, Spriritual Unrest, Poor Job fit, etc. #together4action2018
So why did #18CHS spend all the time on individual stories and "access to care," instead of social level solutions like the 50 presented at #alternatives2018 ???
โNo one succeeds because of individual effort. No one fails because of individual failure.โ Community health is a localized community issue. We all need to own our role on this epidemic. #18CHS#communityhealth@COHealthFDN
.@BipolarMomLife when we put our name and face along with our stories, we start to break down stigma about mental illness. @ThisIsMyBrave has held 45 unique shows since founding, giving others โlittle life rafts,โ giving them hope #18CHS@HealthSymposium@COHealthFDN
So this is the most science-based way to fight stigma, why listen to @bipolarmom life just make stuff up? ---> @COHealthFDN funded @FrameWorksInst "Stop Fighting the Strawman of Stigma." --> https://t.co/AzttlhpodK #18CHS
Why was #18CHS planned during #alternatives2018 , the biggest conference in the national for "behavioral health equity experts"? You excluded our voices? @KarenMsquared
@austin_montoya@HealthSymposium Please consider updating the #18CHS agenda on your website in the future for those of us that cannot attend in person. Especially when events are sold out.
โThe @COHealthFDN should help foster a culture of inclusion among folks who have been left out, such as immigrants who are undocumented.โ -@eacclp of @CCLPnews#18CHS
